Client-Centered Evaluation by Martin Bloom

Client-Centered Evaluation by Martin Bloom

This highly accessible evaluation text encourages students to evaluate their practice from multiple points of view, without the use of statistics. It encourages the client's active participation in evaluation by asking: Are these the results you wanted in resolving your concern? and builds on single-case design.

Thank you, As a practitioner, educator and research/scholar, I found the book, Client-Centered Evaluation: New Models for Helping Professionals, to be a welcomed change to the conventional approach to practice evaluationIn the new models presented by Bloom and Britner, the client is not a passive participant in the process and the researcher is instructed on how to engage the client in research design, knowledge-building, research design and evaluation. This book guides the learner through an eight-step process of single-system designs.The Client-Centered Evaluation: New Models for Helping Professionals is a necessary resource that will offer students an innovative alternative for engaging clients in defining practice goals and objectives, helping to choose and devise measures, share ideas in the collection of data and its interpretation. Students will have access to a Web site with glossary terms and additional research and evaluation tools. This new approach is suitable across the learning continuum, from the novice student/beginner practitioner to the more advanced level consumer of knowledge. The book is an essential addition to undergraduate and graduate curricula that prepares helping professionals to evaluate practice and empower their clients.
